Delete repository files STM32Cube

I urgently need to free up space on Windows and this folder weighs about 20gb.

Obviously I plan to save all these files in a flash drive before deleting it, to avoid any kind of problem,

But I ask you what is this folder, what files it contains and if I can delete all or some of them .. maybe keeping the most recent versions ?

Hello,

This is the folder used by CubeMx to copy the drivers/examples ...

If you ant to free up space, indeed you need to keep the latest Cube version and delete the older ones for a specific family.

For example, for F1 family remove 1.7.0 and 1.8.4. If there will be somthing missing or you deleted accidently a folder CubeMx will request you to downloade the missed folder.  So don't worry you can remove even all Cube packages and download them one by one.
